joining us now is martin fletcher following the story for us. martin, good morning. we've heard the violence continuing. what's the latest now? >> israel's complain for the cease fire was that palestinians shoulds also cease fire and that didn't happen. and there's been a flurry of activity this morning with israeli airplane strikes on the targets. so more of the same. 85 separate israeli air strike this is 45 minutes. but at least there was an attempt. and the cease fire is a mission of support, but also to try to encourage hamas to deal with the more longer term cease fire. there is a possibility that the turkish prime minister will also visit gaza. so there are s. a lot of international pressure building up on hamas to agree to a cease-fire mainly because everyone is of a phrase of an israeli ground invasion. all signs are that ez really is really building up its forces. 16,000 soldiers have been summoned to their bases. so israel is making every preparation for an invasion of ground invasion of gaza. doesn't mean it could happen. it could just be a show of force.
